“Oklahoma Style BBQ”

In 2004, Colorado company Bird Dog BBQ opened for business in Colorado Springs introducing a fresh take on BBQ cuisine. We call it, “Oklahoma-Style” and it features meat cuts of the highest quality, smoked to perfection with oak wood, trimmed to its leanest state, and plated as you watch. Not like smoking with hickory or mesquite—which are very pungent woods—oak has a mild flavor allowing for thorough cooking while preserving the taste of the actual meat. Our BBQ sauces, which are made in-house every day, always come on the side so you can see and taste how meat should be cooked. The service is quick, friendly, knowledgeable, and our streamlined operations and service format allow us to put outright value on your plate.
Unlike many “BBQ” restaurants, Bird Dog BBQ remains dedicated to specializing specifically on BBQ cuisine. Our mission is to improve upon all of the products and services we already provide, not on expanding the menu or cutting costs. Restaurants that serve burgers, quesadillas, steaks, and many other bistro-type items cannot provide the necessary attention required to prepare premium-quality BBQ day in and day out.
Our BBQ philosophy and methods are the result of over 20 years experience in the BBQ foodservice industry. Bird Dog BBQ combines authentic Oklahoma BBQ tradition with clean, efficient, modern facilities that appeal to a broader, more urban market.
The Gazette’s choice for “Best BBQ in Colorado Springs” every year since 2007, Bird Dog features brisket and baked beans that are as fine as you can get anywhere in the country. We are a local company; our staff is friendly and knowledgeable; our menu is MSG-free and gluten friendly; Come taste the difference specialization makes!
